I like the Pro Comp but I lean more to the black wheels. I have the MB Chaos 6 wheels on my white PF. I suppose it really depends on the color of your PF as to which would look better.

The Pro Comp 98 looks too close to a standard steel wheel, that would be under a hub cap, IMHO. I prefer the Vision Wheel 375, it would look good, if you still have the chrome front grill and lettering. The MB Chaos wheel, suggested by Scott, also looks sweet, I like the bit of silver contrast.

I guess I'd have to see your vehicle too in order to judge. If it's been debadged and has a stripped offroad look I'd go with the Cragers. If it's got a lot of chrome I'd go with the second wheel.

How much clearance do you have from the caliper? Heard some pro comps don't clear the caliper.

Ill find out waiting for new tires. The tires are the only reason why I got new wheels.

Any way you could do a test fit with out the tire on it, just to see caliper clearance?
